Re: College FIRSTers!! What classes are you taking this Fall 2004?
 

Well, taking all engineering classes last year is going to finally pay off (although it almost killed me last quarter...Joseph can attest to that one). My last year (stupid 5 year school) won't be jam packed with engineering classes. So, this upcoming quarter my classes are:

Death & Dying (for my psychology conectration...sounds depressing though)
Humanistic Psychology
System Dynamics
Senior Design 1 (looks like we're going to be making a super stable fly by wire air vehicle! woo!)

Oh, and look! I haven't completely fallen off the face of the earth...or Chief Delphi for that matter. :D

Well, just an update to my first post...

Today was the first day of classes, and I had University 101. It's this small-scale class, like twenty kids, all of which are taking education. So we had to go around the room and say something about the last four people (whatever they'd said), and say something about yourself.

Truth, I swear...

Everyone was confused, but I intend to make things a bit more clear on Tuesday when I present my lifeline project. (After all, I would HAVE to wedge FIRST into that somewhere!)

Re: College FIRSTers!! What classes are you taking this Fall 2004?
 

Of course college courses are very important every semester. This semester my courses which present a scientific or technological background are as follows:


Chemistry
IT: Quality Assurance
IT: Industrial Safety
Computer Electronics Tech: Administrative Systems
Philosophy: Computer Ethics

They certainly sound like fun. Hahhaah yeah right. Bring me the new robotics season NOW!

Re: College FIRSTers!! What classes are you taking this Fall 2004?
 

Well, I finally got my final quarter's schedule worked out.

Electric and Magnetic Fields II
Mechatronics
Embedded Microcontroller Systems
Design of Digital Systems

Re: College FIRSTers!! What classes are you taking this Fall 2004?
 

MAT105 - Intro to College Algebra
ENG101 - Composition I (all the comp II classes were full :( )
ENG279 - African American Women Writers
MUS170 - Fundamentals of Music

... Kinda undecided as to what I want to major in. Can you tell? ;)

Re: College FIRSTers!! What classes are you taking this Fall 2004?
 

Hmmm, lessee here:

Honors 200: Writing (GenEd :p )
Honors 201: History of Civilization
Honors 295R: The Pen and the Sword (weekly movie that goes w/ H201)
Rel. A 121 H: Book of Mormon! :D
MeEn 172: CATIA CAD
MeEn 191: Intro. to Mechanical Engineering lecture
Math 113H: Honors Calculus 2 :yikes:

For a whopping grand total of 16.5 credits. Yay! :D

MrToast, the coolest BYU freshman :cool:

Re: College FIRSTers!! What classes are you taking this Fall 2004?
 

As Jake (one of the 6 members of 177 who signed up with 190 this year) said above, WPI is on the quarter system, so the only semester long courses I'm taking are Concert Band and String Ensemble (which together count as one course over the entire semester). My other courses are:

A Term: Fluid Mechanics, Kinematics, IQP
B Term: Thermodynamics, Stress Analysis, IQP

What is IQP? The Interactive Qualifying Project (IQP) is one of the three projects WPI requires, and is supposed to "focus on the relationships among science, technology, and the needs of society". Our project falls under the "Education in a Technological Society" subcategory, and, if successful, will transform vastly expand the scope and scale of WPI's miniFIRST program. It's great to be able to do robotics competitions for credit!

Re: College FIRSTers!! What classes are you taking this Fall 2004?
 

Chem 2301 O chem 1
Chem 3502 P chem 2
Chem 2312 Honors O chem lab
